Battleground: Valley of the Artifacts

Re: Battleground First Look: Valley of the Artifacts

• PvP log slayings are now limited to the overworld. You will no longer be slain for PvP logging within arenas or VotA.
• Added team balance checking. If a match has 3 or less players, or is empty (by everyone using /leave), the battleground will reset.

Re: Battleground First Look: Valley of the Artifacts

Artifacts being captured now remember what team is capturing them and will have their progress reset if a member of the opposite team begins to try to take the artifact.

In layman's terms, if you're 2 seconds away from capturing an artifact and somebody else from the other team steps on it, they will no longer get the capture in 2 seconds.

• Team chat is now on by default when in VotA. To use normal, global chat during a battleground, use /p <message>
• VotA will try to balance teams when the first wave of queuers join.

• Added a bit of fun to VotA.
• Added an extra timer message to arena match starts at 15 seconds.

You should liek... update the website.

 

[Cryptite]

What do you mean?

 

[Zor95]

Coming Soon! Battlegrounds

Is it possible to allow those not in a BG to toggle the scoreboard to watch its progress?

 

[Magpieman]

People should not be able to suicide in bg. They spam suicide at start and dupe items.

Technically, I suppose, but would this be for any reason other than just curiosity? Seems kinda useless to me tbqh.

I'm gonna bring suicide into the plugin so i can control it a little better, so yeah, I'll make this unavailable in pvp.

A lot things can be considered useless, like chairs. But yeah for those curious on how the game is going.

 

[Magpieman]

Lost all my experience in bg, seems like others have this problem too.

 

[Jedoi]

I tamed a wolf, and after I played a bg it started growling and it hasn't stopped. Is there a possible way to make that not happen in the future, or will it always be like that?

 

[Psychedelic98]

I believe there should be a penalty for queueing but not joining because certain people JOCE don't join because they look at the teams and see a minor imbalance.

 

[Opyc]

+1 psy that annoys me so much

 

[Cryptite]

What would you suggest?

 

[Psychedelic98]

Either don't make the teams shown until everyone has joined, or a deserter period similar to WoW.

 

[Cryptite]

Will do. Probably both.

 

[Psychedelic98]

Also it would be awesome if you could get rid of the tall grass in the battlegrounds.

 

[Magpieman]

Yeah breaking tall grass when pvping brings up loads of chat messages which causes lag.
